He has been composing, recording and performing harp music for more than 20 years and has recorded nearly a dozen albums in the United States, Europe and South America, both as a solo artist and with Latin American and world music ensembles. Nicolas finds inspiration for his original compositions from observations of nature and in precious moments of everyday life. His performances integrate harp music 4

He is often a featured concert performer and master teacher at national and international harp festivals. Frank Albo Frank Albo is a Cambridge architectural historian and an expert on Freemasonry and the Western mystery tradition. His groundbreaking discoveries on esoteric symbolism encoded in prominent government monuments, churches, and gardens have been featured in numerous articles, radio, and television programs as well as in his best-selling book, The Hermetic Code (2007). In an exhilarating blend of scholarly intrigue and Indiana Jones-style discovery, Frank Albo peels back conventional history and brings to life forbidden knowledge and mystical architecture hidden all around us. Marion Davidson Marion Davidson learned to love and respect nature early in life and is a life-long gardener. In partnership with her husband and family, and following organic principles, Marion ran a mixed farm and market garden for fifteen years. She sold at many local Farmer's Markets and was known by many as the "Strawberry Lady". Marion also referred to herself as "The Good Shepherd" as she had a flock of 100 sheep. She was the midwife at lambing time, always ready to support her moms in waiting day or night. Marion studied Permaculture and received her Design Certificate in 2008 and shortly following began her own business called Permaculture Plus. Marion works to increase awareness and be an example of how to transition her present urban community toward more local food production. Audrey Logan Audrey Logan is an aboriginal Canadian and traditional knowledge carrier who grows and eats only foraged and her own home grown pure food. She literally lives by her passion for cultivation in harmony with nature. Her grandmother was a renowned native doctor/medicine woman, healer and midwife who opened the first hospital in the Northern Alberta territories. Audrey has spoken at Winnipeg s annual spring Growing Local conference and on the local TV series, Vitality Gardening; and has given numerous presentations throughout North America on indigenous plant use and cultivation methods. Audrey gives programs for the boys and girls clubs, the aboriginal girl guides, and is currently providing hands-on experience for kids at the Dufferin middle school community garden.
